I was referred. I have to call his office and make an appointment.

Thank you for your suggestion.

When does transplant come into the picture?

Thanks!

It truly depends on just how sick you are and it is of utmost importance to have a Gastroenterologist who will act quickly on your behalf and get you to a Hepatologist. Even better would be a Transplant Hepatologist at a Transplant Hospital.

All of this takes time and key is having great doctors who will be strong advocates for you. In my case I was exceptionally blessed and the process went very quickly. I had non alcohol cirrhosis which ultimately came from being a diabetic. I’m available to help. I’m not great at posting her but will do my best. There’s always talking on the phone if that works better for you.
